grown in a limited way. An interesting 

 batch of seedlings showed vigor. 



The greenhouses are heated by three 

 marine boilers. The fourth will be added 

 this month. The experience of the past 

 season, Mr. Samtman said, enabled them 

 to keep the temperature even throughout 

 the mammoth house without difficulty. A 

 tidy potting shed adjoins the carnation 

 range and next to it a shed for tools and 

 fertilizers, which is a model in its way. 

 A place for everything and everything in 

 its place; wood ashes, bone, blood, shov- 

 els, each had its bin or rack, no rubbish 

 anywhere. The office building, facing the 

 railroad station, expresses substantial 

 business comfort. It is of brick, with 

 wide doorway reached by stone steps; 

 offices, packing-room, cooling-room, every 

 detail carefully planned and executed. 

 From this building Beauties and carna- 

 tions daily start on their way to flower 

 buyers in nearly all the principal cities 

 of the east.

 enables us to fill late orders where others fall.

 care of YOU, be stock plentiful or otherwise.
